Song List

The Key to Free Beer Songs
If you’re not sure, go with D. 
It’s what most of our songs start in. 
And besides, if your going to mess up, D is a pretty clean chord.
It goes with most everything, so by the time you hit the second chord, 
no one’s sure if you missed it or were just “goin’ for something a little different”.  

Seriously, here are the tens of songs we play. 

The different colors tell you what the “status” of the song is.

It’s like “Music Triage”  

• This is a song we are playing now.  It could be played at any time  

• This is a song we haven’t played in a while.  It would take some learning to remember it.  Only 50% of the band will hit the right notes 50% of the time.  That’s like 25% of a song.

• We play these for holidays and special occasions.  We practice them only for those occasions and completely forget them until required next year.

• This is a song that we have recently learned and may not have played in front of a crowd.  There is no strict % learned before we will perform this song.  We could do it half learned or half unlearned.  We’re just not sure which one?
